The statement suggests that the traveling alone is better than a group tour led by a tour guide. In some sense, it is certain that journeying alone is better than a trip with a certain people. However, if we focus on the merits of traveling alone, the likelihood is we overlook the advantages of group traveling in context of protection of unpredictable risks and the hadicapped.
Of course, there is a certain case that traveling alone is better than group tour with a tour guide. In the aspect of freedom, we could recognize that traveling alone is much better than journeying with many people including a tour guide. If we travel alone, we can select all part of trip such as destination, amusement, transportation and so on at our disposal. If there is anyone not wants to get arrested, traveling alone is the best way to trip. It indicates that the journeying alone is a good ways to trip.
Nevertheless, it does not necessarily means that the traveling alone is always better than a group tour with a tour guide. As long as the travel place has a bad policing or there is a certain unpredictable danger, it is certain that having a trip together led by a tour guide could guarantee the safe and convenient trip rather than traveling alone. Actually, China government encourages the tourists to trip with a tour guide when the tourists want to travel the prophecy of China such as Xinjiang. Because the tour guided who grew up in the tour place knows a certain ways to trip safely and joyfully in its region where has a bad policing. In this context, it is more suitable way to trip that traveling together with a tour guide rather than journeying alone.
Furthermore, even the tour place is so safe, a group tour led by a tour guide would be better than traveling alone. For some people have a handicapped physically or mentally, especially, group tour with tour guide is not only more necessarily but also better. For instance, my uncle who has an uncomfortable leg could enjoy the trip without discomfort through the help of companions and a skilled tour guide. Even though it is an individual case, few would disagree a group tour led by a tour guide is more proper way to trip than traveling alone for the disabled.
Taken together, despite the merits of journeying alone, protection of unpredictable risk and disabled issues tell us that traveling alone is always better than journeying together with a tour guide. Only by ignoring the problem of the safety in the dangerous tour place and the handicapped could one conclude that the traveling alone is better than group tour led by a tour guide.
